ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the challenges their impairment impose on them.

Other than ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the help they require in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will often provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present some other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some type of drug treatment service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment facility that is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they like and consult with a treatment counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option provided by many different drug rehab facilities in order to help clients pay for rehabilitation where this might not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's price for rehabilitation might be different and less than someone else whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay the full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration variables in addition to income including amount of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
